Long before the Brat Pack took over Hollywood, 16 Candles was a summer sleeper in 1984. Starring Molly Ringwald, Michael Schoeffling, Anthony Michael Hall, Gedde Watanabe and a very young John Cusack, this was one of my all time favorite teen flicks. What's your all time favorite teen flick? Have a favorite scene from this movie? Mine has to be when Jake gets the note off the floor ... of when Anthony Michael Hall gets stuck under the glass table.

This was always one of my favorites too, although I haven't seen it in forever. I'm not sure if I really have a favorite scene, although I really enjoyed these, especially the one where he gets stuck under the table. It has been so long since I have seen it, I think I'll put it on my list to watch again soon.

The movie was pretty innocent compared to todays offerings - who would have ever thought that something with such a basic plot could have launched the careers of so many people.

I haven't seen this whole movie straight through...but I have seen the whole movie in bits and pieces at a time lol. I know one day I need to watch the whole thing from beginning to end, and I will get around to it! :) I thought it was a very cute movie with lovable characters and great humor. Not ot mention the HUNKY love interest! lol. I'm not sure I would say it is 'the best' teen flick...but it's ALWAYS difficult for me to name the best thing in any catagory. I always end up listing 3 or 4 and that doesn't even go over well with me! lol.
